'Hawked' Two Week-Long Free Open Beta Begins Next Week - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on July 27, 2023 @ 7:00 a.m. PDT

Hawked is an online PvPvE shooter in which teams or solo players race to collect and extract treasure from a remote island.

Go Solo or Squad up to explore a mysterious island, battle monsters, outwit enemy players, and steal arcane Artifacts in an all-out treasure hunt. Loot is persistent — extract it to develop and customize your Renegade with new abilities and cosmetics.

In Hawked players must explore this mysterious island, compete with each other, and battle greedy saurian so called Disciples in an all-out heist for treasure and mystical artifacts. But it’s not just the monsters they’ll have to worry about, other players are gunning for their treasure too. Players will also have to contend with puzzles and traps, hazardous environments, and a variety of other challenges along the way.

In the world of Hawked, the adventurers guild GRAIL has recently made the discovery of a lifetime: X-Isle, a mysterious island that harbors powerful artifacts from a lost civilization. Players must explore X-Isle, a recently-discovered treasure trove filled with loot. However, the nefarious, scaly Disciples have also laid claim to the island, and will not give up their conquest so easily. X-Isle is an enormous dynamic map, with each session challenging players to compete on different parts of the island. Its treasures and Artifacts are hidden in boobytrapped temples and ruins throughout.

Enter the Renegades, treasure-hunting mercenaries with a penchant for plundering. As Renegades, the players will have access to a large collection of weapons and gadgets, battle vicious monsters, outwit enemies, and gun down each other while roaming the island. Players will run, jump, surf, zipline, and soar through an ever-evolving world filled with deadly hazards, lush jungles, and ancient ruins.


Starting from August 3 until August 17, Hawked will be available in Open Beta on PC via Steam and the MGLauncher.

Open Beta kicks off the Hawkedjourney, which launches with Issue #0. As the game progresses, new Issues will be released that evolve the narrative of the game alongside large new seasonal content updates. The Renegade Pass #0 will be provided for free to all players that join the Open Beta. Any exclusive cosmetics they unlock on this battle pass will be theirs to keep permanently (regular game progression will be reset when the game is fully launched).

Players need to solve puzzles and dodge traps to steal treasure, extract them, and escape the island. Reclaimed riches can be used to upgrade gear and abilities, and players can extensively tweak their Renegade with customizable loadouts and abilities. Wield new weapons and equipment like katanas and grappling hooks to specialize in stealth, defense, or lightning fast looting.

Hawkedoffers deep character customization. With a huge suite of apparel pieces, hairstyles and colors to visually customize their characters, players can mix-and-match Artifacts, gear, and boosters to create their ultimate treasure hunter and attune their gameplay to their preferred style

Hawked is coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC (Steam).
